Wtb Gretsch Powerjet/Duojet with filtertrons.

As per title, I stupidly swapped my Gretsch Powerjet and have regretted it ever since. So I’m looking for a duo jet with the mud switch which I found to be very useful.

Thanks

I don’t know if this is the sort of thing you’re after, but I played this down at Charlie Chandler’s last week. https://ccgx.co.uk/product/gretsch-duo-jet-ebony-early-90s/

FYI the powerjet has different pickups to the standard duojet. Can't remember the name of them off the top of my head, but they are supposed to sound like a les paul kind of thing, as opposed to regular filtertrons, which don't.

Powerjet has TV Jones Powertrons. 

They sound half Filtertron, half Gibson PAF. Quite thick sounding. 

They can sound a little woolly to my ears, though when you’re playing at volume with amp running full pelt, they really do sound amazing. 

Best Gretsch DuoJet I’ve ever played is a 59 Vintage Select.  Looks, sounds, and smells awesome. Have it in my lap right now
